This is not a luxury resort. Older wooden construction, one restaurant, you stay in small wood cabins. All surrounded in rich greenery of colorful bushes and hundreds palm trees. All situated on the side of the hill. Not every cabin has a water view unless you pay to get one of the best views Caribbean can offer. Two infinity pools to enjoy warm water looking into ocean horizon. Still have good booze in the couple bars. Beech is nice, water clear, half for resort and half for Antigua residents. Getting loud on the weekend. More beeches around, see them from the resort. Resort can get costly specially if you want view and plunge pool with the cabin. The biggest issue resort has is the food choices they can offer. Fish and chicken all week long and beef burger. Resort will not even place tablecloth on the tables for a dinner to make the time special. Staff is efficient but will not give you many smiles. If food choices are not much of the problem resort has something to offer. Be sure what you expect for the money you pay.

We stayed in cottage 42 which was a garden view/small ocean view. Loved that everyone has their own cottage! The beds were very comfortable and clean/spacious. The pools had amazing views. We were a group of 8 and never had a problem getting chairs. Sometimes we had to share but not a big deal. We were mostly in the water. Staff was awesome!

We just got back from an amazing vacation at Cocobay Resort. Antigua is a beautiful island with beautiful beaches. The resort is a beautiful tropical garden with lush trees on a very beautiful beach (Little Ffryes). The downside to the beach is that it is not completely private since all beaches in Antigua are public. On Sunday the beach was very loud with locals who come to the beach to cookout/party. On other days, there are people that either drive or walk over to this beach and stay for the day. There are also tours that stop for a bit to enjoy the beautiful beach. Even with these extra people, the beach was still never super crowded. Most of the staff at the resort are friendly, however there are a few that seemed a little less personable. The menus were good for most of our meals. There were probably only two meal menus that didn't have something I wanted to eat. The burger offered on each menu was always the same. Overall we had a wonderful time and we would come back to Antigua and to Cocobay Resort.

We returned to this adult-only resort after a wonderful stay two years ago, and this time we brought friends along to share the experience. Once again, the food, location, and rooms were absolutely amazing. Most of the staff members are the heartbeat of this place—incredible, kind, warming, and genuinely sweet people who make you feel right at home.

Hats off to the staff for making our trip memorable and wanting to come back again. Special thanks to Reed, Marlon, Lorenzo, Germaine, my girls Saiska, Lisa, the lovely Aaliyah, and Sandy. Wonderful dinner and drinks at the cliffside with Kerry and the extremely talented mixologist Melinda, and to do many more beautiful people.

One of the best all-inclusive resorts in the entire Caribbean! The food was incredible and changed daily, so every meal was different. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Coffee delivered to our room every morning when requested. Excellent excursions and tours that cover a variety of areas. Beautiful views from any of the pools, direct access to the beach while still offering drink service. Multiple food options available throughout the day including paninis, pastries, smoothies and bar bites. Cannot say enough positive things about Cocobay Resort and its staff.

We love this resort, from its location, beautiful and quiet beach, to it cleanliness, and special the staff friendliness. The staff was welcoming and accommodating right from the moment we checked in. The receptionists, Farzana and Kashiri were very helpful and answered all our questions. Special thanks to Farzana and Kashiri who helping us booking the romantic dinner, sushi at black rocks pool and the lovely massages. We also love the staffs at the bar, breakfast and dinner restaurants, and Kerry and Melinda were really nice and supper supportive. We also appreciate the guest experience manager, Kemlin Charles who was helping us when we forgot our personal items in the room's safe box. Kemlin took time to ship our item back to the US after we checked out the hotel. Many things to list. We definitely be back and stay in Cocobay resort longer in a near future.

The great stuff- The staff at Cocobay were amazing! The beach is beautiful and not crowded! The food was really good! It was peaceful- not a thumping disco anywhere in the place.
The not so great stuff- the place is very old and in need of updates! Wood decking all splintery. The room pools were not heated-I never went in! Showers were lukewarm. You could only eat at meal time or get a choice of 2 panini’s during the day. If you missed dinner- you wait till breakfast at 7:30am. No room service either. The view from the room It’s rustic and they do a great job with service but I’m going somewhere with modern amenities next time.

Lovely resort, we were very lucky to have a room chalet with plunge pool that was quite private. The plunge pool is rather cold & does not get a huge amount of sun, but we were still pleased we opted for it. The decor was light & airy. Smaller resort, great food & coffee shop. Beach was great & mainly hotel members. Pool area can get a little busy.
The majority of staff members were friendly, but it was a little mixed in the restaurant.
Very little to do in the immediate area but options to head out via taxi. English Harbour worth a visit.

Our stay at Cocobay was truly wonderful. The location is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views and a gorgeous beach that never felt crowded. Our bungalow was lovely, very comfortable, and spotlessly clean, as was the rest of the resort.

The food was a standout. Every meal was excellent, thoughtfully prepared, and consistently enjoyable. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and genuinely kind, which made the experience even better.

One thing to be aware of is the entry road to the resort. It is in very rough shape. If you plan to rent a car, I strongly recommend considering a 4x4 rather than a small vehicle like the Vitz we had.

Overall, a fantastic experience in a beautiful setting. We would happily return. Enjoy!

All the employees were very friendly and helpful. The grounds were beautiful and the ocean view spectacular. Meals were all very good but need to combine cake and ice cream on more of the desserts.

We stayed at Cocobay Resort in Antigua in November, and overall we had an amazing time — but our experience was unfortunately impacted by a room issue that was never properly resolved.

When we arrived, we were not given the room we had booked. Instead, we were placed in a much smaller room with a significantly smaller plunge pool, located off to the side and mostly in the shade. Because of the lack of sun, the pool was cold and didn’t feel as clean or inviting as expected, which was disappointing given the price we paid.

On our last day, we were finally moved to the room we originally booked, and it was absolutely perfect — exactly what we had expected and paid for from the start.
Unfortunately, despite paying for a higher-tier room for the entire stay, the resort refused to provide any type of refund or price adjustment for the days we were placed in a smaller, lower-value accommodation.

That said, the beaches are absolutely stunning, some of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen. The food was wonderful at every single meal, and the servers and chef were truly exceptional — kind, attentive, and genuinely warm. Their hospitality played a huge role in making the trip enjoyable despite the room situation.

We still had a great vacation and many memorable moments, but the way the room issue was handled left a bad taste and prevented this stay from being perfect. With better transparency and guest care in situations like this, Cocobay could easily deliver a flawless experience.

Overall a beautiful resort. A few items prevented a 5-star review. The biggest issue is that we never had a hot, or even warm, shower the entire week. The water never changed from an uncomfortable cool temperature which put a bit of a damper on the stay.
The food was delicious and for the most part there was a good variety. The exception was breakfast which seemed to be basically the same thing every morning with slight variation. It would have been nice to have some more variety in the morning meals.
We had a cottage with private plunge pool but due to the location (very shaded), our pool was freezing so we couldn't use it as much as we wanted.
The staff (for the most part) were very nice and friendly and helpful.
Again, this place is beautiful with stunning views and a quiet and laid back atmosphere. Just a few hiccups for us but our vacation was still wonderful.

10/10 would recommend.. the hotel is so clean and fits they romantic ambiance. The entire staff from the Front desk to the bar was amazing, very helpful, polite, assisted you and finding things you like to do. Food 10’across the board only thing a little bigger size portions(food was delicious everything including deserts) or make lunch a buffet or grill to cook food by the pool/beach. Not just panini for a snack by the pool…just a little more cultural pool side food options like jerk chicken. Drinks were so good not to strong just right. I would definitely be back. My husband and I had a real
Nice in our private cottage with a private pool. This is the perfect island if you want to relax experience the Caribbean culture choose this resort

The staff here is incredible. It really sets the place apart from the rest. Everyone from the concierge Kemlin, to the best bartenders— Derrick, Shakeem and Vincia— know how to provide impeccable service and keep things stress free at all times. It truly was the most relaxing vacation and we can’t wait to be back. Thanks to everyone at Cocobay— y’all made it so magical.
